Ah Marie Stopes - to whom every woman of our generation and before should be grateful. I actually lived in a house where she'd lived once. I certainly used her clinics. I gather sbe was appalling. But so what.
GG: my next post will show the relevance - mainly birth control. 'Married Love' was about sexuality and human sexual response. It was published in 1918 and banned in the States until 1931. She was a passionate feminist and favoured sexual equality. God bless Marie Stopes!
Granny p: I might have known you would know her. it is supposed to be illustrating my next post which isn't quite finished. I was afraid of losing the photo - which frquently happens - so published it early.
Grand mother but still a girl at heart. Married to MTL(my true love)after a separation of 30 years. Had three careers: trained paediatric nurse, National photographic model and business woman. Now settled in SW and enjoying our five children and ten grandchildren and making the most of what time we have left.
In January 2013 I lost MTL.

I'm ignorant, Pat...is this a recent book? Is it good? Was it one recommended to you when you just got married?
